Study the effect of suction flow control on the aerodynamic performance of a wind turbine using 2D section numerical Results

In the present work, the numerical investigation of a wind turbine airfoil with suction flow control is initially performed to find the relative improvement in its erodynamic efficiency.Consequently the study of turbine performance is accomplished using 2D simulation results as extending the flow control to wind turbine blades.The latter is incorpo

Determination of neonatal case-specific fatality rates in a tertiary health institution in North Central Nigeria

Abstract Background The current neonatal mortality rate in Nigeria (37/1000) is among the highest in the world and the major causes have consistently been reported as sepsis, perinatal asphyxia and prematurity.However, case-specific fatality which defines the risk of dying from these and other neonatal morbidities is rarely emphasized.Determination

Spatial distribution of skin and muscle metacercariae (Digenea) of roach, Rutilus rutilus, and bleak, Alburnus alburnus (Actinopterygii: Cypriniformes: Cyprinidae), from an estuary lake in central Europe

Adult stages of digenean diamond painting strand en zee flukes are usually well studied, but their larval forms, the metacercariae, do not receive comparable attention of researchers.As a consequence, metacercariae, especially small ones, are routinely overlooked, despite their serious epidemiological and epizootic potential.Therefore, the existing
